Country singers tend to be a polite and humble lot. But Jason Aldean flat out told reporters that he wants to win the top prize Wednesday night (Nov. 6) at the CMA Awards.

But he did it in as polite and humble a way as possible.

“Obviously Entertainer of the Year, that’s a big one. So, any time you’re in that category and have a shot at that one is pretty special,” Jason said.

“That’s one that’s kind of, to this point in my career, has kind of eluded us so far. So, if there was one I would like to get before my career is done, it’d be that one. So, any time we get nominated and have another chance at that, to me, is pretty cool.”
